My love, we have seen it all The endless confession, the rise and fall As fragile as a child But lately I'm sorry I can't hold a smile But I stand tall to get by No matter how hard I try to hide Did you know I'd take the time for you? Did you know that I would see you through? Did you know that I would play the part? I must have made it clear right from the start My love, can you give me strength? Somehow I forgot how to ease my pain I know I'm right where I belong Something for nothing never proved me wrong But I stand tall to get by No matter how hard I try to hide Did you know I'd take the time for you? Did you know that I would see you through? Did you know that I would play the part? I must have made it clear right from the start I would share my whole life with you What would you do the same for me? And I would give all I am to you What would you do the same for me? And I will stand tall to get by No matter how hard I try to hide Could you see I could break? Did you notice all my mistakes? There were times I could feel you in my mind Did you know I'd take the time for you? Did you know that I would see you through? Did you know that I would play the part? I know I made it clear right from the start
